MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ryder System, Inc. (NYSE:R), a leader in commercial fleet
management, dedicated
transportation, and supply
chain solutions, is proud to announce that over 450 employees who
work in the Company’s Commercial
Rental, ChoiceLease,
and SelectCare
Maintenance business participated in the global day dedicated to giving
back, #GivingTuesday.
On Tuesday, November 28th, employees from over 50 Ryder
locations across the United States and Canada participated by
volunteering to support local charities of their choosing. This year,
Ryder expanded its support for #GivingTuesday by encouraging the
Company’s employees out of its ChoiceLease and SelectCare Maintenance
operations to participate as Ryder commercial rental employees have led
the efforts in prior years. Ryder employees contributed to the global
day of giving by volunteering a combined total of more than 1,000 hours
across the U.S. and Canada.

Activities included volunteering at local food banks, making bagged
lunches, and conducting toy drives for local community centers. Ryder
employees also volunteered at elderly centers and a variety of community
outreach facilities in the U.S. and Canada with one common goal, to
promote generosity and improve the communities where they work and live.

“For the past sixth years now, Ryder’s participation in Giving Tuesday
is always driven by our tremendous employees and their desire to help
the communities in which they work and live,” said Rich Mohr, Rental
Vice President and Global Product Manager, Ryder. “This global day for
giving back has become a tradition across Ryder as our rental locations
look forward to giving back and making a meaningful difference in their
communities. Each year, our participation has increased by 15 percent
and the regions where our employees participate in Giving Tuesday have
consistently expanded into new areas within the U.S. and Canada.”

#GivingTuesday is held annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving (in
the US) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber
Monday to kick off the holiday giving season and inspire people to
collaborate in improving their local communities and to give back in
impactful ways to the charities and causes they support. In dozens of
towns, cities, regions, and states, people embrace this day as an
opportunity to raise money for local nonprofits, schools, and arts
organizations; run food and clothing drives; teach children about
philanthropy; encourage acts of kindness; collaborate with their
neighbors; and celebrate generosity.

In 2016, millions of people in 98 countries came together to give back
and support the causes they believe in. Over $177 million was raised
online to benefit a tremendously broad range of organizations, and much
more was given in volunteer hours, donations of food and clothing, and
acts of kindness.
